Be Vit known that MICHEAL GUERRIERI, citizen of the-United States, and'resident of Newarln' New Jersey, has invented certain new and useful Improvements 'in Tool Holders, of which the followingl is a specification. My invention Vrelates to tool holders and pencil holders and is particularly adapted for use by manicurists'. Y 5 Y .The object of my invention is to provide a tool holder and pencil holder and a casing to serve as al'ioldergfor the tools when not in Vuse and asV a r`tool' holder by means of which the shank of a tool may be firmlyfheld in the acU of using the tool.V v

C indicates a tube fitted 1n the forward end of thereto and having its inner end closed by diaphragm C which may be formed integral as illustrated and serves to form an end wall for the chamber D formed in the casing A and serving to hold the tools E The outer end of the casing A is provided with a thread A adapted to engage with the thread F of the cylindrical eraser holder F, which holder also serves to Vclose the outer end of the casing A to form the closed chamberD.

the holder .lf by the inwardly turned por-` tion F2 which forms a flange within which the eraser 1s firmly held. H indicates an outer cap which fits in sliding frictional engagement over the outer surface of the tu bular eraser holder F. indicates a clip.

The forward end C of the tube C lis turned inwardly' at a right angle to the axis of said tube to form a iiange C2 having` a central opening C3 and is also pro- @5 vided with a thread C4 to engage the thread ff B of the member B. The forward end of the member B conical in form to conform to the outer conical surfaces of the jaws J--J respectively which are formed integral with the shank members TL-J respectivelv. the ends of which are connected together liy an integral portion J2 constituting` a spring` -J-J are formed to provide a squareopening between them orother suitable irregular Vform may be used7 to hold the square shank E of the tools to be `held thereby. The shank-portions 'J-J are smaller in diameter than the back end J2*J2 resp-ectively of the jaw members thus providing shoulders K-K which abut the flange C2 when the member B is turned on the thread to tighten or close theljaws, and the conical inner surface of the member B forces the from rotational movement byV a pin L which is firmly secured to the iiange C2 at one end Vand projects into a=small `recess or hole -form'ed inoneL-of vthe shoulders K-in sliding engagement with `the walls thereof.

\ indicates a tubular holder for the lead of a pencil M. It comprises a chuck portion N having' an annular shoulder N and shank portion N2 of reduced diameter and a tube O having;` a thread P formed in its outer Surface. The tube 0 is provided with a slot Q extending' nearly its whole length. A

rod R of about the same diameter as that of *A 'the tube O prevents thenut from screwsitioned in the tube O by holding the nut T ias ing oit' the tube. The nut T is provided with winds T'wT res ectivel which are adapted to! project between the shank meinbers J-J respectively and rest Y in the space V (see Fig. 2) between them. Then .theV holder M isfin position asillustrated in Figs. l, 2 and 4, the portion N Vcan befturned by the fingers and since the wings T', Tl on .the nut T cannot turn, the nut travels -on the .thread P and propels the lead through the instrumentality of the wing vbi and rod R and then by screwing the member B on the thread B the shank N2 is clamped Vby the jaws J-J and the pencil used for writing, or if preferred',rthe member B may be removed from the holder and the pencil powith the fingers while turning the chuck end Nas will be readily understood.V i Y Thepencil vand its parts is normally carried in the front end of the tool holder when not in use, each jaw J-J being formed with a recess lV-V respectively as `Shown in Vin which the chuck end N of the pencil holder rests thus leaving the aws .lf-J free to hold the Shanks of the regular tools.

The entire construction as manufactured about two-thirds the size of the drawing shown in Fig. l and therefore may be carried i'n the pocket like a fountain pen.,
